Abstract
The racemate and enantiomer of sertraline free base were prepared and characterized. The crystalline sertraline enantiomer is relatively less polymorphic compared with the sertraline-HCl salt. The solid-state nature of sertraline racemate was identified to be a racemic compound through a binary melting point phase diagram and spectroscopy analysis. The crystal structures of the racemate and enantiomer were determined to be monoclinic P121/n1 and P21, respectively.
